We're deep into judgment call territory here.

On the one hand, the move from Chambersburg to Maugansville is fairly 
short in distance - about 14.75 km, if I have the coordinates of both 
sites correctly. And the move increased WHGT's day power, making it less 
of a challenge to receive.

On the other hand, the move took WHGT across a state line, at least as 
far as COL is concerned (the new tx site remains in Pennsylvania), and 
if WHGT was operating with its new 58-watt night power (which sounds 
unlikely), that would be a much greater DX challenge than its old 
1000-watt night facility.

I don't think *I* would count it as a new station. Your mileage may vary.
